Forgot the shitty crash cart with the wrong plug, a screen from 2005, and one of those shitty compact keyboard and track pads.

get out of my home lab
Home lab? Try colo space from the third biggest telco in Australia.
Well my lab is also running on the existing copper network.
I had the fire suppression system go off while I was in the datacenter once. Scariest thing knowing all the oxygen is being pushed out of the room by the heavier gas.
I've never moved so quick to the exit as I did then. Took 2 breaths along the way, was extremely light headed for about 5 minutes afterwards.
It went off because HVAC guys were using an angle grinder to cut some ducting only feet away from the intake vent. All the smoke got pulled in and set off the fire alarm.
Oooof. That’s was easily a $80,000 mistake

You spell 'learning opportunity that will be entertaining for years to come' funny.
Where I used to work we had an FM200 system that I was always super-careful around. If I even thought there was a chance I could set it off I would disconnect the firing pin then leave my car keys there so I couldn't leave without re-connecting it. They company that installed it said the sensors are looking for "fine particulate matter" so even things like drywall dust could set it off.
I am constantly surprised those systems are even legal
Settling for the death of an employee could be significantly less expensive than loosing a whole room full of 'cloud.'
My main man freezy boi chill af
…and more readily available than a new Liebert. Holy fucking lead times.
Are you trying to buy some CRAC?
Already bought them over a year and a half ago, and only half of them showed up.
Mmmmm Blinkenlights
Dells are crashy?
Against the bar set by HP, IBM and Lenovo, how can they not shine?
How many 14th-Gen Cascade Lake PowerEdges have you had the misfortune of working with? Almost as if Dell replaced their entire firmware team with wish.com ChatGPT for that line of servers.
Shhh, don't give them any ideas.
